Captivate 5 Bulleted lists, can you modify?

Started using Captivate 5 a couple weeks ago, and have run into a problem with bulleted lists. Is there any

way to adjust the numbering/symbols? Can you change the first bullet fromt the default "1" or "A" to

"2" or "B"?

The bulleted formatting style seems extremely limited, especially if doing multiple bulleted lists, being that there's only 1 "symbol" - the disc. So if I have a bulleted list under a bulleted list, unless I change between letters and numbers, they are going to look the same. Looking for any solution to this, can you import any kind of bulleted style from Word or PP?

Indenting a bulleted list item changes the symbol from a disc to a square and then to a smaller hollow square.

Is this what you were after?

That is exactly what I'm talking about, but to do that with a text box in Cap 5. Is that possible? I can do it as an image, I'd love to be able to do it in a text box.

You can do this in a Captivate text caption.

The image I showed in my last post contains transparent captions.

No, you cannot import from Word or PPT into a Text Caption in CP5.

But if you really want to have bulleted lists with multiple levels, why not create an image with a CP-capture or another capture program and insert that instead of creating a Text Caption?

PS forgot another workaround, by exporting to XML, editing and reimporting
